- Description
- NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD SOLE SOURCE THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS. This is a notice of intent to award a sole source contract under statutory authority 10 USC 2304(c) (1), set forth in Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. The Reference Number is F1M31A5348AW01. The 628th Contracting Squadron, 101 E. Hill Blvd., Joint Base Charleston, intents to award a sole source contract for Foreign Waste Disposal at Joint Base Charleston. The 628th Contracting Squadron intends to make an award to Stericycle Inc., 28161 N Kieth Dr, Lake Forest, IL, 60045-4528. Market research was performed and information gathered in determining this company to be the only source for this requirement. In accordance with (IAW) FAR Part 5.207(c) (16) (ii), the proposed contract action is for services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1(b)(1) (ii). This notice of intent to award is not a request for competitive proposals; however responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation which shall be considered by the agency. A determination by the Government not to compete this requirement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. The justification for the sole source requirements as follows: In accordance with FAR 6.303-2: (1) Agency and Activity: 628 Contracting Squadron, Joint Base Charleston, SC (2) Nature of action being approved: Sole source acquisition. (3) The purpose of this acquisition is to provide scheduled Integrated Solid Waste (ISW) management services, to include handling and disposal/ transportation. The contractor shall coordinate and notify Fleet Services to arrange proper pick up, transport and disposal of foreign waste in accordance with all applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations for Joint Base Charleston for a period of twelve months. (4) Justification Rationale: IAW FAR 6.302-1(a)(2) Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirement. Stericycle Inc. is currently performing under an existing Blanket Purchase Agreement and is the only Authorized Contractor allowed to perform this requirement for JB Charleston. (5) Demonstration of Unique Qualifications: Stericycle Inc is the only firm capable of providing the services described in paragraph (3) Due to agreement CHS-MIL-001-2012 with the USDA. The compliance agreement that is currently in place for Charleston AFB must be utilized until new Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) are written, any requested changes must be approved by the APHIS Regulated Garbage Lead and CBPAS. Award to any other firm would result in large fines, and waiting to solicit for offers would create unacceptable delays in fulfilling the requirements as it would require solicitation, award and approval by the US Department of Agriculture before being allowed to handle international garbage and would result in months without performance. (6) Description of Solicitation Efforts: IAW FAR 5.102(a) (2), this notice will be posted on the Government-wide Point of Entry (FedBizOpps.gov), but retained in the contract file to document the rationale for a sole source award. (7) The contracting officer has determined that the anticipated cost to the Government will be fair and reasonable based upon previous awards made for same service and comparison to other agencies that offer waste disposal services. (8) Description of market research: The most recent market research performed for this requirement revealed large businesses are the most common contractors capable of fulfilling this type of requirement. No additional market research was conducted. (9) Other supporting facts: Stericycle Inc. is the incumbent contractor and is the only one with written agreement to perform this service. (10) Interested Sources: Research has shown that an adequate number of interested sources exist. (11) Actions to prevent barriers that may lead to restricted consideration in the future: A competitive solicitation will issued for the new multiple year contract and advanced notice will be provided to give enough time for potential contractors to receive approval from the USDA to perform this service for JB CHS. (12) This justification is accurate and complete to the best of the contracting officer's knowledge and belief.
